  • I have been to Croatia 2 years ago, drove to Zagreb via night train, rented a car and immediately drove to the coast. Keep in mind I really despise big cities and tourist stuff.

    I have been with my girlfriend and we visited two small villages along the coast that were not too touristy but had nice beaches. We really liked it.

    The highlight of our visit was the Plitvicd National park which was one of the most beautiful nature I have seen in my life (you need tickets). Also the roads to Plitvice have been very nice. We spontaneously did one other activity - there is an old Yugoslavian underground airbase close to the Bosnian border which is a huuuuge lost place. We booked a guide who went with us through the tunnels for 2 hours, I’ll never forget that experience!

    Then we went to Split for one night, just for going to one of the islands, in our case Hvar. We spend almost a week in Hvar and had a really good time although it was way to warm.

    Split was alright but pretty ugly, you have the typical tourist stuff, the residential area is not really worth it. It is pretty funny to watch the rich people in the port area though.

    Dubrovnik was a pure tourist hell. Yes historically interesting, but pure tourist hell. I would never come back again if it wasn’t another pandemic or so, but people like different things.

    That was a short summary of our trip, ask me anything if you like!







  • What do you mean? For the next 5 years we have a skill gap regarding long range missiles, while on the other hand Russia has stationed its Iskander missiles in Kaliningrad that can easily reach Berlin.

    This gap was planned to be closed with the Tomahawks that Biden promised in 2021 to station in Germany. Now that Donald Trump is pissed because Merz out called him on Iran, he took that promise back.

    As I understand the article, Germany now thinks about buying the said Tomahawks on their own.

    What is the right way in your opinion?
